If you’re trans and live in PA,

 specifically in the State College area, you should know that PSU’s LGBT center has free clothes for trans people. (This includes binders.)

No, I’m not kidding.

The Transit Clothing Exchange is a program created to make getting gender-affirming clothing easier for students (and friends of students). The LGBT center is in the hub. Just go there and ask to see the Transit closet.

Transit Clothing Exchange is generally intended to work as follows: trans people bring in their old clothes that they no longer want and leave with clothes that they feel affirms them without having to pay.

It’s incredibly hard to replace your wardrobe when you come out as trans. This is especially true if you’re young or poor. The clothing exchange makes it possible for people with no money to spare to get clothing that they’re comfortable wearing.

This incredible program is underrepresented in the area. They have a whole room full of clothing waiting to be taken and, because the program doesn’t get a lot of exposure, they actually have a hard time getting rid of it all.

I’m hoping to help the exchange get some more traffic! It’s such a great way for trans people to support each other and form community.

If you’re NOT trans and live in PA,

(or even if you are)

Please consider donating old clothing to Transit instead of Goodwill. Goodwill is affordable in comparison to Walmart, but $5 a shirt is still too expensive for some people. Put your clothing where it will help a trans person in need. Just fill up a box or bag with old clothing you don’t want and take it to the LGBT center in PSU’s student hub. They’ll appreciate it!

Please reblog this so that anyone in the area has more chance of seeing it. Share it with trans friends that you know live in the area.
